- My setup was less than ideal and I went in to this fight with Cloud on almost no MP, but I didn't feel like reclearing some previous fights just for the sake of tweaking materia so I stuck with it.
My approach
Get Radiant Ward down asap. Use Cloud's limit immediately and play as him to distract Sephiroth to give Aerith a better chance at building some ATB and getting it down.
Always have an ATB for Aerith to cast a level 2 magic spell on the Masamune to stop the tornado thing and put him in to pressured, where Cloud should get as many Focussed Thrusts in as possible.
Refocus seemed nice as I was first progressing this, but I soon realised I needed to spend every Synergy Ability on building Cloud to his level 3 (Finishing Touch). Be careful when using Synergy Abilities as you are not immune. I tried to always use it with Aerith to pull Cloud away from Sephiroth and make some distance.
Cloud basically just chips damage, building ATB for focussed thrusts, using Chakra so Aerith only needs to heal him in an emergency (for example getting Skewered).
I had MP for one cast on Cloud, most attempts I had to use it to Raise Aerith, but this time I got lucky and could save it for Octoslash.
For Octoslash, you need to interupt it by killing both Masamune and the wing. They both need to be hit with magic damage, so I used Blizzara with Aerith on the sword, in hopes of a bit of cleave on to the wing, and Fira with Cloud on the wing.
At this point Sephiroth is low enough that he will soon push in to the last phase. This is why I built to Finishing Touch. That needs to be sent straight away as soon as Sephiroth uses 'The End is Nigh'. As you can see, I struggled to do basically anything with Aerith, although I think I could have used my full charged transcendance. After Cloud's limit does most of the work, it was just a few Focussed Thrusts for the stagger and then finishing him off.
All in all, took me a few hours of attempts. Watching the 'in fight' starter cutscene many times got a bit annoying! - เกม
